Original 1st/only printing 22&1/2 x 28&1/2" concert poster for Texas psychedelic legends the 13th Floor Elevators (featuring Roky Erickson) with Shiva's Head Band and the Conqueroo at the Vulcan Gas Company in Austin, TX on 11/3-4/1967. Art by the one and only Gilbert Shelton, image ("Pooh") is #2 in the VG/Vulcan Gas Company series. Medium-thick flat stock poster is in good to very good (B to B/B+) condition; a series of light/nearly invisible to semi-hard horizontal bends on the left and right edges, a fair amount of creasing in the lower right corner (near "Minors Welcome"), a slightly discolored area in the upper left edge (about 2" diameter) over the zebra's head), a trace of black spray in the extreme left edge, several edge dings, light toning and it looks like a couple of tiny areas have been retouched (I woudn't say this piece has undergone any serious restoration), but it's still the finest example of this HIGHLY scarce Vulcan Gas poster I've ever seen. Very, VERY scarce- and a really beautiful image.
